I'm 100% for the delay, but just shows the minda set of some. ie SV can do no wrong.

 no one defended it. allt hey said is if they have too they have too and its going to be rough for a while. i for one was hoping fro a delay.

you really need to stop with this excessive bashing its bad for your health.

honestly who defended them. i bet you all the fans wanted a delay.

noone in the right mind would have said march release was a smart idea

i dont have an extra 40 atm i dont think so : /

On Paper the game is amazing , the graphics are quite impressive too ,the thing is that all expectations they give you are dying at max 5mins after you start to play , maybe you will like it ,but IMO the issues are too big to have a solid and immersive experience ,as this game is based on immersion in your character's skills progress it totally fails for now , I'd give it a year at least before trying it again as it have a real potential but its far to be as good as it can be

 indie companys : / i dont mind the ksill system to be honest. there just a few things that could be better thought out i think mainly combat balance and the over all usefull ness of all items that can be made

They made a smart move holding off. It's in worse shape than Vangaurd was at launch and I want them to make it. 6 months or a year is fine just don't shoot yourself in the foot at lauch coming out  with a garbage game.

 i think it runs smoother except for the lag and dysync i normally dotn get the dysync tho just the lag Oo\

Vanguard ran like crap

there is a few annoying issue swith the game atm. but its all stillw ork in progress the lag and dysync is probly the worse of it

I've got no horse in this race, as I'm not interested in MO at all...I'm just replying because this thread was on the main page.  Anyway, from what Ive heard about this game, any delay they can afford is a good thing.

 of course the dysync is the  main issue i believe. the game is playable even more so after that desync a bit annoying at times tho but i know they. will add more content and stuff after release im pretty sure we arent going to get anymore content before release just polish bug fixes and some needed tweaks

I like how the OP bashes the game for not being ready and at the same time bashes them for delaying it to improve it, good stuff.

I think the updated client and netowrk should clear out a lot of the bugs and give them a better foundation and also give them more time to polish the game up, nice move on their part.

 I don't think anyone complains about the game being held back as it's obviously not ready for prime-time.  I think most folks think it's a silly game that SV is playing with all the small bumps instead of taking significant steps. Instead of another 4 weeks.. realize the reality of the state of the game and send it back to closed beta to fix it up and make it into a real game.. then come back to us in 6 months and let us see what has been accomplished.

 

Edited to add:

This is what I mean.  Here is their delay message from December 16th:

 

Release
In order to deliver you the best product we can, we are pushing back the release of Mortal Online for one month. This is not a decision we take lightly but we feel that it is necessary to do so in order to polish all the core features.
All the core features will be implemented and the additional time will also ensure that we can continue in thoroughly testing all the game features and eradicate all those nasty bugs.
 

Just be honest and push it back a reasonable amount of time to actually "eradicate all those nasty bugs" instead of repeated small delays...

 why does this even matter it doesnt to be honest. its kinda like some one QQ that they got 6 dimes instead of 2 quarters and a dime..

I do not believe that they will be addressing ANY of the items you listed before release..

do you really think they arent going to address any bugs and not do some polish..

 The programmers are going to be in the US working with Epic on moving to a new network structure and changing to the updated unreal Engine.

 

They did not postpone the game to work on account of it being shalllow,lacking in polish and content and full of bugs.  They postponed it (at least according to the post) because of the Desync issue which they finally realized was not going to be fixed. They CERTAINLY will not be adding depth or content.  Adding such will require even more testing and inject additional bugs which need to be tested so no.. I don't think the basic game is oging to change over the next month.

 

Back in December instead of postponing it for "one addiional month" (till jan) they should have realized the scope of what needed work and postponed it until Q3 of this year.  This should have been accompanied by an offer to allow those who ordered in July 2009 a chance for a non-contested refund since when they pre-ordered they were told the game might be shipping in September.

 

They just need to stop with the unrealistic small pushbacks and bite the bullet and send it back into the shop or a significant amount of time.  Relaunch a real closed beta where the actually look at system specs and not simply let people in because they order.   Then once there is a real game, with depth and content, a real patcher, and  substantially less bugs (particularly critical ones) they can re-introduce the game to the public with an open beta.

 

Pushing it back a mere 4 weeks after all the prior small delays is not going to result in any significant changes to the game.  it might fix the desynch issue depending on the real underlying cause... which is what their publicly stated goal is.

 they will stil work on some of that stuff. becuase they do have have more time 2. and yes i know they delayed cause of th dysync. but that doesnt mean there not going to work on nothing else.

guys this is a fantasic decision on thier part. just take 5mins to think about this: heading to Epic and having direct support in the framework of there ingame engine is unheard of. if any of you have spent anytime modding and scripting with UnrealTech then you can grasp the daunting mechanics behind converting the engine to adopt an mmo style of gameplay. and having the team behind Unreal Tournament, Gears of War and having Cliff Blizinski standing over your shoulder helping you fix your broken game. the ramifications are beyond your limited scope of the game being delayed another month...hell delay it 6-8months if they can get it right.

im not a fanboi, in fact paying for an open beta is bad juju. but i see what they are trying to do on an engine that is leading edge, let them take there time and this game will be better then you think. having help from a AAA studio is any bergeoning studios wet fucking dream.

dont hate on them, they are trying to make things right, and this is an amazing first step, be greatful

 

open beta is free

7th delay?

 

SV are not the most professional or experienced game developers out there, no doubt.

Still, they aren't even close to setting a record for total time in delays.  No even close.

Besides, let's be honest here.  People like you and Slapshot are here to bash the delay.  If they had decided to go ahead with the launch in a couple of days, you would have bashed them for that, too.

Hypocritical forums stalkers FTL....

 

 

Waiting until 2 days before announced release?  Is that professional?

More professional than releasing a game they know is shalllow,lacking in polish adn content and full of bugs...you knwo liek some Professional companies do...

 For the record.. none of what you liisted was stated as a reason for the delay.  It was stated that it was delayed for the Desynch issue.  I do not believe that they will be addressing ANY of the items you listed before release.. but we shall see.. in a month.

 if you really think that LMAO. Wow really think about what you just said

 Did you quote the wrong post?   Nothing you quoted contains LMAO or is laughing at anything.  You lost me.

 here let me underline it for you slap

You must be blessed to escape the sync issue thats been plaguing the game for months.   Only becomes unplayable for a few minutes??? Geeee..... That seems totally acceptable.

are you blind? really the sync issue is mostly fixed for alot of people only some people stillg et it. and osme of it is the extrame lag that hapens from that new code they added and it looks like sync issue but its actully a lag issue. why dont we waituntil ther elease it before you go acting like you know it all

Originally posted by IAmMMO

It's pretty obvious they're waiting on the Chinese department they licensed the engine from to finish the work on the desync issues they so desperately need  addressed for release.

yea i think they are going todelay. i know the sync issue is alot better for most people

Can't wait for it to go live.

 

I get no lag issues, the busy cities are fine for me.

 

I have played the game since block b and will be playing for much time after release.

 

Can't wait for the advances that my character makes are actually mine, not a beta character.

 

And each new patch just adds great new elements to the game.

 

Go go Mortal Online!

 

How does EVERYONE have lag/sync issues but you? Why has SV been working on the issue for months? 

 

Welcome to mmorpg.com 

 i dont have sync issue i see extreme lag in towns once in a  while but its only unplayble for a few minutes when it does that

all they really need to do for speeds hacks is add a server side check. the funny thing with mo is its even easyer to see hacks than df

beta 72 hour ban, retail life ban.

 

Thats if they get caught and the GM can prove it. LOL     At least the hackers have had 8+ months to exploit/hack in beta to ready themselves for launch. We'll played SV!!! Worst part is the comment was made in reply to a known hack  still in game. (one of many)

Meh han you do know people dont take you serious anymore
